[tex-live] TLWinGoo version

[Lars Madsen]

That is debatable...

Hmm, then I have to ship the newer TLWinGoo along side w32transplant because we cannot add file associations with the older TLWinGoo (it does not detect existing associations correctly).

Hmm, it might simply be easier to ship w32transplant with a copy of the TeXLive folder from the installer, and ask it to use that and not the TeXLive folder from the system we are transplanting.

install-tl.zip is always build from the latest sources, while
texlive.infra as installed on the system is the latest *released*
version, while the current version is shipped via tlcritical.

The reason is that fixing the installer is easy, but if we break
texlive.infra and ship that, fixes might be difficult.

It is all thought out properly ;-)
